Physician’s Odyssey,Chapter 598 - Adding Eastern’s Elements - Read free novels online

As Russia's trip came to an end, everyone could finally relax.

At the same time, the representative team also took advantage of their last moment to tour around the scenery.

Meanwhile, Su Tao and Vera managed to break through the obstruction and got to meet each other.

Su Tao got to know from Vera that her maternal grandfather was supportive of their relationship, which her father was then forced to remove the house arrest on her. However, Vera had to start assuming the family's work, so she wouldn't be able to go to China for the time being. As for the Three Flavour International, she believed that Yan Jing was capable of managing it well.

After the two of them enjoyed a passionate moment together, Vera took out her phone and flipped through the photos with a smile. "According to our plan, these series will be entering Europe's market as Three Flavour International's luxury fashion brand. The designers are all extremely outstanding, and the styles are extremely imaginative. At the same time, while having a pleasant appearance, it's also practical."

But when Su Tao looked through the photos, he shook his head with a wry smile.

"You don't seem too satisfied with the designs?" Vera was baffled as she asked with her brows furrowed.

Nodding his head, Su Tao spoke his thoughts, "I don't know anything about fashion, so I don't know what the European market will be like. But I feel that since it's a brand from China, then we must have some essence of the nation in it. After all, there are tons of luxury brands in Europe, and they have been in this line of business for years. If you're going to compete with them in terms of fashion, you're undoubtedly using your disadvantage to fight with their advantage. The Three Flavour International originated from the East, so I believe that we should have something iconic like adding some Eastern elements in our designs."

"You're a genius!" Vera widened her eyes as she looked at Su Tao in astonishment.

Shrugging his shoulders, Su Tao humbly smiled. "I'm only speaking nonsense!"

"No!" Vera shook her head and continued, "I have always been feeling that something was missing from the Three Flavour International's products. Now that you've enlightened me, I suddenly realise that the Three Flavour International relied on traditional TCM culture to receive the popularity with the vast females in Europe. Thus, our products naturally need to have some Chinese elements in it as well."

After that, she immediately gave Yan Jing a call, and the two of them started to discuss.

What Su Tao said earlier wasn't complete nonsense. Although he didn't bother with the Three Flavour International's management, he had a basic plan in his mind to design it into an enterprise filled with both China's culture and TCM's elements.

Since the company was going into luxury products like bags, perfume, and fashion, they naturally had to add some China and TCM elements in it.

By the time Vera and Yan Jing finished their talk, the coffee was already cold.

"Yan Jing approves of your idea, so we will be getting the design department to submit a new batch of products with trending international elements and Three Flavour International's unique style combined in it." Vera smiled in excitement.

Hearing her words, Su Tao smiled. "I don't think it's that complicated. The designs are already great, you just have to add some elements like embroidery and ink painting in it to fool others."

"You're talking as if you're a designer," Vera sourly replied.

Coughing seriously, Su Tao replied, "I might not have the professional skills of a designer, but I have the esthetics of a National Healer!"

Looking at Su Tao boasting with such an earnest expression, Vera couldn't help laughing. However, it only lasted a brief moment before her gaze turned dark as she looked at Su Tao. "Who knows when the next time will be for me to see you after you return to China."

Grabbing onto Vera's hands, Su Tao solemnly said, "Don't worry about it. If you want to see me, I'll bring myself to you no matter how far you are."

"I can still bear it!" Vera's eyes flickered with tears as she continued, "So you don't have to be so hard on yourself. Just quietly be a doctor in China and save more people!"

Pinching Vera's cheeks, Su Tao smiled. "What an understanding lady!"

Wiping her cheeks with a napkin, Vera took out her mirror and grumbled, "Look, it's all your fault for making me cry. My makeup is all ruined now! Let me go to the bathroom and fix it."

Watching the silhouette of that demonic figure and angelic face disappearing in the hallway, Su Tao couldn't help sighing. Truth be told, he had an urge to ask Vera to give up everything in Russia to follow him back to China. However, he lacked the courage to do that. Facing a colossus like the Ormond Family, it didn't mean he's courageous if he spoke those words, it would only make him seem like a fool.

He could only give that sort of promise by possessing sufficient strength.

But he was confident that it wouldn't take that long.

If a year wasn't enough, then he'll work hard for two. If two years weren't enough, then ten!

Anyhow, he's still young, and he had all the time to accumulate.

When Vera returned, she came with an old man that made Su Tao lightly lock his brows as he curiously looked at the old man.

"This is my grandfather, Lin Yifu!" Vera pouted as she helplessly explained, "He insisted on meeting you, and even I couldn't stop him."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lin!" Su Tao immediately greeted the other party as he stood up. He knew that it was all thanks to Lin Yifu that he managed to find Yan Sun in Russia. At the same time, it also proved Lin Yifu's power and capability for him to find Yan Sun in such a short time.

Lin Yifu had a tall stature, standing at a height of 5'9". His body was well-built, and he looked refreshing without any killing intent. Anyone who glanced at him would feel that he was a well-tempered gentleman.

Wearing a gold-framed spectacle, Lin Yifu smiled. "I finally get to meet you. I've been curious about what kind of person won the heart of my beloved granddaughter."

Judging from Lin Yifu's accent that came with the Wu dialect, Su Tao analysed that the former must be someone from Yunhai.

"I hope that I did not disappoint you. Otherwise, you wouldn't waste your time meeting me, not to mention talking to me." Su Tao humored.

Lin Yifu turned to Vera. "I would like to have some privacy with Su Tao. Go somewhere and wait for now."

Upon hearing those words, Vera was worried as she looked at Su Tao with encouragement flickering in her eyes. Su Tao knew that she meant, she wanted him to perform well. After all, their relationship depended on the fact if he could obtain her grandfather's support.

After Vera left, Lin Yifu smiled. "Why don't you take my pulse?"

Su Tao initially thought that Lin Yifu might have something important to tell him, so he was teased by Lin Yifu's drastic action. However, he soon calmed down and seriously took Lin Yifu's pulse.

"What's wrong? Am I suffering from any diseases?" Lin Yifu asked as he took his hand back.

"Your body is fine, but you've suffered a few heavy injuries when you were young that would occasionally flare up." Su Tao revealed and explained, "One is located near your shoulder blade, it's a bullet wound. The other one is at your ankle, and it must have been smashed by a metal rod in the past. Although it was treated in time, your injury did not recover well due to the medical circumstances back then. Hence, you will be troubled by those two ailments during summer and winter."

Lin Yifu inwardly sighed since Su Tao was right.

"Now, I finally know why would that stubborn Stefan looked at you in a new light. You're truly an outstanding doctor." He smiled.

"Do you need me to deal with them for you?" Su Tao asked.

"Although I cannot guarantee complete recovery, I can at least alleviate your pain."

"At my age, having some ailments is like memories, and it's not necessarily bad. If you get rid of my pain, I will lose my caution instead." Lin Yifu rejected, shaking his head.

Upon hearing those words, Su Tao bitterly smiled. He met many patients who refused to be treated, but it was the first time he encountered someone exotic like Lin Yifu.

Sweeping his glance at Su Tao, Lin Yifu solemnly said, "Treat Vera well, and I believe that we will meet again in the future!"

But when Su Tao wanted to send Lin Yifu off, he was stopped by the latter with a smile.

Looking at Lin Yifu's silhouette, Su Tao inwardly sighed. Although Lin Yifu wasn't giving off any peculiar temperament, Su Tao could feel a steady and compact sensation coming off the old man. It was something that only those who cultivated their heart to the limit could achieve, preventing their hearts from being read by others.

Sitting in the spacious back seat of the vehicle, Michelle shot a curious look at Lin Yifu and asked, "What do you think about your future grandson-in-law?"

"He's interesting!" Lin Yifu grinned, revealing several golden teeth, and continued, "From the moment he met me, he has been observing and trying to sound me out."

"Heh, Vera really picked up a treasure this time!" Michelle smiled in jealousy as she continued, "She's more fortunate than me!"

Sourly rolling his eyes at Michelle, Lin Yifu replied, "Is there a mother on earth who would feel jealous of her own daughter like you?"

"Perhaps this is called the heavens' jealousy! Since you've acknowledged him, are you going to hand him a quarter of your assets, at the very least?" Michelle sighed.

Shaking his head, Lin Yifu replied, "He has his own path. He's someone with conviction, and according to my knowledge, a great figure in China is prepared to nurture him, so I will not join in the mess."

"What a miser! You're just trying to find an excuse. Even if someone is going to nurture him, you can still fight for it." Michelle snapped as she glared at her father.

Lin Yifu understood Michelle's intention, to which he smiled. "As the saying goes, mother-in-law grows fonder of her son-in-law the more she sees him. But aren't you a little too much?"

"I do whatever I'm happy with!" Michelle rebuked, "I'm the disaster that you created when you did bad things to my mother back then, so regardless of how unruly I am, you don't have a choice but to endure it."

In the end, Lin Yifu decided to shut his mouth. Otherwise, he might be tortured to death by Michelle.

There's a common saying that daughters are the lovers of their father's previous reincarnation. It's the debt that their father owed during the last reincarnation, so fathers have to repay it in this life!
